I started to install my Expedition Essentials mount.
I started by getting the bottom dash screws installed and tried lining up the top hole but it wouldnt line up. So i took the bottom screws out.
I tried lining up the top hole again but the screw is off by about a quarter inch. I have to...
I’m looking into some dash mount accessories because I want to be able to record my scenic drives using my phone/gopro. I’m looking into some options I saw someone mention an issue about glare trying to record from inside the vehicle because of the angle of the windshield.
I’ve never done any...
We actually did a 3 day trip with 2 adults and 2 teens recently and it worked out just fine. If I have back seats folded down I have plenty of room. But I’ve also backpacked for 18 years so all my gear fits in a 60lt backpack for a 5 day backpacking trip no problem.. I also have my roof cargo...
yeah I wanted to get a used stock subwoofer just to get me by but the base doesn’t come prewired. At that point I’ll wait to get the 500.1 key and a proper sub with the oem box. Trying to preserve any free space I have. Not much to start with on the 2 door.
I’ll check that out. And no I’m not expecting concert quality here but the speaker on my iPhone sounds better… ok that might be a bit of an exaggeration but you get what im saying.
I did have to rewrire the fronts for that. I checked the rears and thought they were accurate as was. But I’ll triple check those as well.
this gives me a few places to start at least. Thanks everyone
I did the same reference in all four corners left the stock kickers.
Even without adjusting any gain knobs the sound from the fronts were great. So I was a little confused. I’ll try messing with the gain a bit. I moved the left one up about 1/3rd and at the head unit 11 spot it’s quite loud...
So I switched my rear 4” to infinity reference. I did the kicker key 200.4 install. Did the tune with the pink noise file on a flash drive. Made sure to do the forescan to flatten everything. Proper settings on key amp were done and flattened all the settings on the head unit.
Everything sounds...
Minnesota…. I only get the whistling when fan is on full speed. Man even the cloth seats were cold when I got in it at 830pm after sitting outside.
had to order replacement upper moulding retainers and nuts for the caps so I can take the roof rack off so I can get it to fit in the garage. Have...
Yep they were definitely reverse polarity. I think you just saved me a lot of headache trying to tune that brightness out. Sounds much better now. The ends on the harness were sized large and didn’t want to worry about damaging the harness so I just cut and added in a butt connector since I...
Thanks for the tip on that I will have to double check that with my volt meter tomorrow. That would be less than optimal to have to cut and splice the harness to fix that…unless the lead can just pull out of the harness maybe and just be swapped.
I have gone through his write up. I thought...

Transitioned from a 2017 miata manual to this beast…I think it’s super comfortable…but hey everyone is built different so you know your mileage may vary. :)
Na see this duck carries the one ring….to control all the other ducks. 3 ducks to the land cruisers, 7 to the 4Runners of Toyota, 13 to the mortal jeeps….
One duck to rule them all, One duck to find them, One duck to bring them all, And in the Darkness bind them…
